Orchestration Sync Command

Synchronize task status with git commits, ensuring consistency between version control and task tracking.

Usage

/orchestration/sync [options]

Description

Analyzes git history and task status to identify discrepancies, automatically updating task tracking based on commit evidence and maintaining bidirectional consistency.

Basic Commands

Full Sync

/orchestration/sync

Performs complete synchronization between git and task status.

Check Sync Status

/orchestration/sync --check

Reports inconsistencies without making changes.

Sync Specific Orchestration

/orchestration/sync --date 03_15_2024 --project auth_system

Sync Operations

Git → Task Status

Updates task status based on commit messages:

Found commits:
- feat(auth): implement JWT validation (TASK-003) ✓
  Status: in_progress → qa (based on commit)
  
- test(auth): add JWT validation tests (TASK-003) ✓
  Status: qa → completed (tests indicate completion)
  
- fix(auth): resolve token expiration (TASK-007) ✓
  Status: todos → in_progress (work started)

Task Status → Git

Identifies tasks marked complete without commits:

Status Discrepancies:
- TASK-005: Marked 'completed' but no commits found
- TASK-008: In 'qa' but no implementation commits
- TASK-010: Multiple commits but still in 'todos'

Detection Patterns

Commit Pattern Matching

Patterns detected:
- "feat(auth): implement" → Implementation complete
- "test(auth): add" → Testing phase
- "fix(auth): resolve" → Bug fix complete
- "docs(auth): update" → Documentation done
- "refactor(auth):" → Code improvement

Task Reference Extraction

Scanning commits for task references:
- Explicit: "Task: TASK-003" ✓
- In body: "Implements TASK-003" ✓
- Branch name: "feature/TASK-003-jwt" ✓
- PR title: "TASK-003: JWT implementation" ✓

Sync Rules

Automatic Status Updates

yaml
sync_rules:
  commit_patterns:
    - pattern: "feat.*TASK-(\d+)"
      action: "move to qa if in_progress"
    - pattern: "test.*TASK-(\d+).*pass"
      action: "move to completed if in qa"
    - pattern: "fix.*TASK-(\d+)"
      action: "move to qa if in_progress"
    - pattern: "WIP.*TASK-(\d+)"
      action: "keep in in_progress"

Conflict Resolution

Conflict detected for TASK-003:
- Git evidence: 3 commits, tests passing
- Task status: in_progress
- Recommended: Move to completed

Resolution options:
[1] Trust git (move to completed)
[2] Trust tracker (keep in_progress)
[3] Manual review
[4] Skip

Detailed Analysis

Task: TASK-003 - JWT Implementation
Current Status: in_progress
Git Evidence:
  - feat(auth): implement JWT validation (2 days ago)
  - test(auth): add validation tests (1 day ago)
  - fix(auth): handle edge cases (1 day ago)
  
Recommendation: Move to completed
Confidence: High (95%)

Options

Dry Run

/orchestration/sync --dry-run

Shows what would change without applying updates.

Force Sync

/orchestration/sync --force

Applies all recommendations without prompting.

Time Range

/orchestration/sync --since "1 week ago"

Only analyzes recent commits.

Branch Specific

/orchestration/sync --branch feature/auth

Syncs only tasks related to specific branch.

Integration Features

Update Tracking Files

/orchestration/sync --update-trackers

Updates TASK-STATUS-TRACKER.yaml with:

yaml
git_tracking:
  TASK-003:
    status_from_git: completed
    confidence: 0.95
    evidence:
      - commit: abc123
        message: "feat(auth): implement JWT"
        date: "2024-03-13"
      - commit: def456
        message: "test(auth): add tests"
        date: "2024-03-14"

Generate Commit Report

/orchestration/sync --commit-report

Creates report of all task-related commits.

Fix Orphaned Commits

/orchestration/sync --link-orphans

Associates commits without task references.

Sync Strategies

Conservative

/orchestration/sync --conservative

Only updates with high confidence matches.

Aggressive

/orchestration/sync --aggressive

Updates based on any evidence.

Interactive

/orchestration/sync --interactive

Prompts for each potential update.

Examples

Example 1: Daily Sync

/orchestration/sync --since yesterday

Quick sync results:
- 5 commits analyzed
- 2 tasks updated
- All changes applied successfully

Example 2: Branch Merge Sync

/orchestration/sync --after-merge feature/auth

Post-merge sync:
- 15 commits from feature/auth
- 5 tasks moved to completed
- 2 tasks have test failures (kept in qa)

Example 3: Audit Mode

/orchestration/sync --audit --report

Audit Report:
- Tasks with commits: 85%
- Commits with task refs: 92%
- Average commits per task: 2.3
- Orphaned commits: 3

Webhook Integration

Auto-sync on Push

yaml
git_hooks:
  post-commit: /orchestration/sync --last-commit
  post-merge: /orchestration/sync --branch HEAD

Best Practices

  1. Regular Syncs: Run daily or after major commits
  2. Review Before Force: Check dry-run output first
  3. Maintain References: Include task IDs in commits
  4. Handle Conflicts: Don't ignore sync warnings
  5. Document Decisions: Note why status differs from git

Configuration

Sync Preferences

yaml
sync_config:
  auto_sync: true
  confidence_threshold: 0.8
  require_tests: true
  trust_git_over_tracker: true
  patterns:
    - implementation: "feat|feature"
    - testing: "test|spec"
    - completion: "done|complete|finish"

Notes

  • Requires git access to all relevant branches
  • Preserves manual status overrides with flags
  • Supports custom commit message patterns
  • Integrates with CI/CD for automated syncing
